Title: Dockside ColourLocation: Wivenhoe, EssexCamera: Panasonic Lumix GF1 / 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 IOSNotes: Dad and I took a quick walk along the Quayside this morning. Although the weather was predominantly grey and typically cement lid, I did manage to find a splash of colour next to the small local fishing fleet, moored up for the holidays.One Year Ago:Day #1088Two Years Ago:Day #723Three Years Ago:Day #358

Title: The Edge Of SunlightLocation: Barbican Centre, LondonCamera: Panasonic Lumix GF1 / 14-42mm f/3.5-5.6 IOSNotes: I made the most of some sunlight this morning, on my way to the office. Good job too, since this evening it turned nasty and the rain set in for the night.One Year Ago:Day #1077Two Years Ago:Day #712Three Years Ago:Day #347

Title: Holding It TogetherLocation: ARU, ChelmsfordCamera: Panasonic Lumix GF1 / 20mm EF f/1.7Notes: I might as well come right out with it – I hate November! I always feel low and depressed and the weather is usually rubbish too. We’ve had some grey old days so far this month. So a little burst of sunshine was very welcome today. I was at a business seminar at Anglia Ruskin University, run by Chelmsford Borough Council. This was a piece of sculpture I found during quick lunchtime stroll on the campus in between some excellent sessions on motivation – just the kick up the backside I needed! I felt this was a good omen – so one for Treasure Hunt Theme #49 – Good.One Year Ago:Day #1051Two Years Ago:Day #686Three Years Ago:Day #321

Title: On The Forest FloorLocation: Galleywood CommonCamera: Canon EOS 7D / 60mm EF-S f/2.8 USMStrobist: 1 x YN560 from camera left with Stofen softbox @ 1/8.Notes: I took a walk on Galleywood Common this afternoon in search of fungi. But there weren’t many about so I had to find some other subjects. These beach leaves had fallen on a dead birch tree across the path.One Year Ago:Day #1045Two Years Ago:Day #680Three Years Ago:Day #315

Title: Beads And BraidLocation: IngatestoneCamera: Panasonic Lumix GF1 / 20mm EF f/1.7Notes: I visited a friend this evening who is a very keen flower arranger. She particularly likes contemporary arrangements and had this rather nice vase on her dining table. It was a bit too big to photograph well with the flowers in too, so I homed in on the details of the pot itself.One Year Ago:Day #1039Two Years Ago:Day #674Three Years Ago:Day #309

Title: Blue Glaze & FoliageLocation: WivenhoeCamera: Canon EOS 7D / 24-105mm EF f/4 L IS USMNotes: I had to visit Colchester today to pick up my 24-105mm lens which has been at the menders. I took the opportunity to have lunch with Mum & Dad, who’s garden always looks nice, whatever the season. I love the deep blue glaze of these pots on their patio, which look great even when they are just full of foliage.One Year Ago:Day #990Two Years Ago:Day #625Three Years Ago:Day #260
